Descripción
Style of Early Minoan pottery named after a site in eastern Crete. It is characterized by the invention of unusual shapes, including teapots with exagerated, long spouts and jugs with tall, beaked spouts. Distinctive decoration was created by covering the entire pot with a coat of slip, which was mottled during firing to achieve a variegated effect in brilliant red and black.
